We have changed hatcheries this year as ours sold to another hatchery. Prices and breeds available are slightly different.
To place an order or ask questions, please call the store at 804-598-4021. It is too difficult to respond by email to questions and we need to talk to you on orders. There is a $10.00 deposit on orders. It is not refundable on cancellations and no shows.
We will be starting to take orders after January 1 with arrivals starting in mid-March. I don’t get quite as soon as some businesses but the weather is still cold and if they get cold in shipping (they come on an airplane) there is a lot of trouble with viability.
Please call 804-598-4021 to place your order. You must call, do not email questions or orders. It is too difficult to answer questions by email and we must talk to you in person to place an order. We do not ship chicks. A nonreturnable desposit of $10 is required when you order.
We are currently out of hens and a new batch will not be here until spring. Our grower had a bad misfortune and lost a significant number of hens. Call to be on our waiting list or you probably will not get. 804-598-4021.
These hens are probably the best egg layers out there, producing 250-320 eggs per year. The full-grown hens weigh around 6 lbs. They lay a golden brown large egg. Their country of origin is the United States.
I normally carry full grown Golden Comet pullets year round. They are around 4 months old when they come in. Right now everyone wants hens because of egg prices and the supply chain can not meet the demands. You need to be on my call list in order to get hens.
For questions or orders, please call the store 804-598-4021. Do not email as it takes too much time to respond to all the requests and it is so much typing. Thanks for your understanding.
Our chicken policy:
We will NOT sell you chickens if you do not bring a safe, ventilated, carrying cage or box with holes to put them in. We will use our discretion as to what is a safe number to put in the container. Just remember, the hens must be able to stand upright, not piled in your cage/box and have proper ventilation.
This is for our and your safety and protection from environmental and humane animal handling standards.
We do sell the pet kennel style of carrying crates.
We want to thank you for your help and cooperation on this issue.
Examples of proper carrying options:
